Someone should launch a class-action lawsuit against the federal Liberal Party
in Australia for false advertising, on the grounds that there is no way in which
their ideology can be said to be "liberal" in any remotely sane definition of
the word.
Case in point:
this piece about our illustrious Prime Minister steadfastly refusing to criticise anti-Muslim comments by Australia's equivalent of Jerry Falwell.
(If I recall correctly, Michael Kirby didn't receive this level of deference from the PM; it seems that you have to be a seething reactionary demagogue.)
Fred Nile can suck my fat one. It always annoys me that more moderate, sensible christian leaders don't speak out against Fred Nile more often, because, like Falwell, much of what he says could not in anyway be interpreted to be truly Christian. What would Jesus do indeed...
